@professor.steph: We work so hard to become emotionally mature, and often envision a life that has more peace and ease. While that may be true, there’s also a downside that we don’t often address! And it’s that you will be working 10x harder in your relationships with your loved ones who are still in a more emotionally immature head and heart space. This Is exhausting and is not only often unacknowledhed, but usually often punished!! (Bc ur not participating in the typical dysfunctional dynamics that feel familiar to your loved ones who wants to relate to you in that way). Do any of you guys resonate with this? Know that if you do and are looking for community, @Whitney Goodman, LMFT, founder of Calling Home, has created just that — a community for family members who are seeking support and education to address dysfunctional and unhealthy communication and relational patterns. It’s also a place where you can get support for being low or no contact with your estranged family. If that’s something you’re interested in, I encourage you to check out her content! I run the Family Estrangement Group every other Monday at 4pm EST. Next one is Monday 24th. Hope to see you there 🤍🫶🏻 #emotionallyimmatureparents #emotional #parents #kids #parentingtips #boundaries #healing #HealingJourney #SelfImprovement #SelfCare #therapy #therapytok #MentalHealth #mentalhealthmatters #family #gentleparenting #fyp

The biggest downside to learning EQ is realizing how the majority of people around you have little to no emotional maturity and that can be really lonely, even if you do attend to your own needs.

This is the tough part of being a therapist too. Either I’m “too therapisty” (ie using healthy skills) in conflict, or I’m acting “surprisingly unhealthy for a therapist” 😪

My mother is 88 and it’s so strange recognising her as an old woman but a child inside.

I find as I get emotionally more mature life gets boring so every now and then I love going unhinged again and it’s even more fun because I’m aware of what I’m doing

Or just let go and accept them for where they're at. Find connection in other relationships with those who are capable.

Im actually going throu exactly this with my mother & its weird because I can stay grounded &handle my emotional triggers with a lot of other people but with her specifically & the specific things shes triggering it makes me want to have nothing to do with her at all, especially because she drags me back into a not even an old pattern, but some of my lowest vibrations & its weird to be even in those places because I have long surpassed those points in particular I didnt think Id be revisiting it

It actually became easier for me because i stopped expecting a deeper relationship. I can do a shallow cordial conversation in my sleep.
